Medicine in Nepal with Projects Abroad for Teenagers
Program Overview
Ready for an unforgettable medical journey in the shadows of the Himalayas? Join our High School Special in Nepal, designed specifically for students ages 15-18. Based in the vibrant region of Bharatpur, you’ll live and work with a global group of teens, gaining up to 50 hours of professional experience.
This internship is all about discovery. You’ll shadow expert doctors and nurses through various hospital departments, attending lectures at a local teaching hospital to see how medicine operates in a developing country. You’ll also get hands-on in workshops, mastering skills like checking vitals and anatomy, then head out to local schools to conduct health screenings and teach children about dental hygiene.
When you aren't at the hospital, you’ll be immersed in Nepali culture - from learning to fold your own "Momo" dumplings to exploring local markets. The highlight of your trip is an epic weekend safari in Chitwan National Park, where you’ll swap your scrubs for binoculars to spot one-horned rhinos and maybe even a Bengal tiger. With 24/7 staff support, it’s a safe and life-changing way to explore your passion for medicine.
